Orange River
Orange River
It’s amazing how much depth is portrayed in this whimsical collage of an imaginary place in the woods. The following poem by the artist, Susan Lackey, is the inspiration for this artwork.
There’s a place in the woods, where the river is bright.
It’s the color of the sun and what a sight.
The trees are pink in the mid-day sun.
And I have only just now begun.
See mountains of gold, a long way back.
Look there through the trees, just beyond the gap.
Oh yes, let’s stay, right here all day.
It seems to me, a perfect place to play.

The Remnants Collection
These paintings either the first ones or last ones of a variety of collections. Art Exhibitions tend to contain artwork from a single collection. When there are only a few paintings remaining in a collection, it’s difficult to show them with others. Sometimes a collection is started and after just a few paintings, the artist stops the series for various reasons. These also become difficult to show with others. Because these are some of the artist’s favorites, they are presented here in a patchwork collection of remnants.
